LOS ANGELES -- Harder. Better. Faster. Stronger. HARD returns with the Summer Music Festival, going down July 19, 2008 at the Shrine Expo Hall in downtown Los Angeles.

The inaugural event, HARD NYE, made headlines as the New Year rang in with headliners Justice, Peaches and 2 Live Crew. This summer's all-night spectacular will include 2 stages and boast a genre-bending line-up, featuring N.E.R.D, MSTRKRFT, Spank Rock, Kid Sister, A-Trak, Steve Aoki, The Bloody Beetroots, Kill The Noise and many more. Terry Kennedy and friends will be in attendance at the HARD Mini Street Park. If you thought NYE was impressive, prepare to be destroyed this summer.
